Lift the front of the tractor up at least 3 feet and lower the mow deck to give you clearance. push the clutch pedal and lock it down to release belt tension. remove the mower belt from the engine pulley only. remove the trans belt from the idlers about midway back then from the trans pulley & finally from the engine pulley. put the new belt around the engine shaft above the mower drive pulley but not on the drive pulley then around the trans pulley. now you can put it on the drive pulley and finally on the idlers. make sure you have it under all the various keepers or the belt will shred in like 10 minutes. release the clutch pedal & check the belt again to ensure it is in the correct place. replace the mower drive belt & ensure that didn't come off other pulleys in the process. lower the front of the tractor and test

Hi, Your Troy-Bilt has a sealed for life transaxle and requires no service. However, there have been some issues with the CVT clutch assembly bushings. Since there are no lubrication points, if the unit will not reach top speed or changes speeds abruptly, the first thing to inspect is the drive belt wear and tensioners. If the belt is in good condition then the bushings, and/or the clutch assembly will need to be replaced. I hope this helps and feel free to reply back if you need further assistance. Here is a link to the transaxle and clutch assembly;

Install the cylinder head with a new gasket. Lubricate the bolts with engine oil prior to installation.

Torque the M11 bolts in sequence as follows:

Step 1: 30 ft. lbs. (40 Nm), plus an additional 70 degrees.

Step 2: Turn an additional 60 degrees.

Step 3: Turn an additional 60 degrees (total 190 degrees).

Torque the M6 bolts to 106 inch lbs. (12 Nm).

Install or connect the following:

Rear transaxle brace over the studs located at the rear of the right cylinder headNuts attaching the rear transaxle brace to the cylinder head, looselyBolts attaching the rear transaxle braces to the transaxle and tighten to 37 ft. lbs. (50 Nm)Nuts attaching the rear transaxle brace to the cylinder head and tighten 37 ft. lbs.

(25 Nm)Nut attaching the coil cassette ground wire to the cylinder head and tighten to 13 ft. lbs. (17 Nm)Secondary camshaft drive chainTiming coverValve coverIntake manifoldWater crossoverExhaust manifoldNegative battery cable

I would be taking a very close look at the drive belt pulleys and their bearings. If that is all good then replace the springs which maintain the tension. There is some extra slop in there somewhere allowing the belt to run out of the groove.

Pull outward on the front wheel knuckle (3K185). Carefully pull the front wheel driveshaft and joint from the front wheel knuckle and position it aside.

NOTE: Removal of the LH front wheel driveshaft and joint (3B437) requires removal of the transmission support crossmember (6A023) to allow access with a pry bar. If the LH front wheel driveshaft and joint is being removed, continue with step 11. If the RH front wheel driveshaft and joint is being removed, continue with step 15.

Support the transaxle with a transaxle jack or equivalent.

Remove the four transaxle mount-to-rear engine support nuts.

Remove the two rear engine support nuts at the rear of the transmission support crossmember.

While supporting the rear of the transmission support crossmember remove the two rear engine support bolts. Remove the transmission support crossmember.

Position a drain pan under the transaxle.

Insert a pry bar between the front wheel driveshaft and joint and the transaxle case.

CAUTION: Extreme care must be taken to ensure that the pry bar does not damage the transaxle case, the transaxle oil seal, the front wheel driveshaft and joint, or the front wheel driveshaft joint boot (3A331).
Gently pry outward to release the front wheel driveshaft and joint from the differential side gears (4236).

Remove the front wheel driveshaft and joint.

CAUTION: When the LH and RH front wheel driveshaft and joint assemblies are removed, Transaxle Plugs T88C-7025-AH must be inserted to prevent the differential side gears from becoming mispositioned. If the gears become misaligned, the differential will have to be removed from the transaxle to align the gears.
If both front wheel driveshaft and joints were removed, install Transaxle Plugs T88C-7025-AH in the differential side gears.
